I was roaming through a large JD dealership and noticed about 20 used tractors lined up, all were 790's with between 40 and 150 hours each there other models with low hours also but in smaller quantities. I thought WOW! good used tractors, lots of them, low hours, probably cheap.<br>
<br>
Then the salesman inside told me that they were new tractors that had been leased out to nursuries (up to 40 tractors per nursery) for a very short time and were returned to the dealer to sell. Any tractor with about 40 hours or less is sold as new, full price, full warranty, and from 40 to approx 150 hours discounted $600.00 and still has full warranty. <br>
<br>
This caught me by surprise as who would buy a used tractor with little or no discount. What happens to these tractors? How much do the nurseries pay for these leases? Whats in it for JD besides some exposure. I don't buy tractors every day but this does not make sense. <br>
<br>
Also when the factory has incentives to sell such as a $500.00 discount, do all dealers get this to pass on to the customer if they want to.
